Is the panel protected by glass or plastic? How well does it hold up to impact of rocks or balls?

I am sorry I cannot answer your question. I am not at the location where I ordered this item for: Sorry.

The cells are sealed behind a glass sheet. I haven't thrown rocks at mine yet but it seems like it would shatter easily should a Freeman of the Land or other anarchist dedicate his not inconsiderable mind to the task of destroying it. As for the impact of balls, it would certainly depend on the heft of them.

very durable. The side panel is made of matte steel. front and top panel is made from plastic with a touch of rubbery feel to it. Just be careful with the harddrive caddy. It tends to break easily. Overall it an awesome case

It is very heavy tempered glass. Sturdy. The edges are blunted but would still be careful with young children running around it.

It's glass but it seems quite sturdy. The plastic base is securely attached, not removable.

Hard solid plastic, it has held up well in a rocky, hit climate for a couple years now.

I don't know but it's pretty hard and durable plastic at the top of the glass. I have no concerns of it breaking

My 14 yr old daughter was playing with our cat and accidentally hit our 55" plasma screen with the toy. It weighs almost nothing and is clothe at one end and plastic stick on the other. When it hit the glass cracked and poof its gone for good. How durable is durable. Not very durable at all. Should be kept in a glass case if you have pets or kids. I

Its a tough hard plastic with rubberized corners. Durable and protects against drops well.

It appears to be a very tough plastic. Mine has lived through one cold winter here in Md. without any damage or distortion.

It is not glass - some sort of plastic. It dose not feel lite or cheap however.

My experience with this dome, it works very well for me have used it for 2 seasons . Not a hard plastic but a some what flexable plastic , if you push on it with a finger it will give a bit but retains it's shape . I could see if a person was too rough with it , it could damage the dome , with my dome I haven't had any durability issues .

I think its just a very sturdy plywood. Its very heavy and durable. We've never had problems with the balls bouncing off it or it breaking in anyway.

This case has protected my iphone when my toddler dropped it on the bathroom tile floor. I thought for sure my screen would have cracked, but after inspection this case saved my phone. The inner shell is hard plastic and the outside is rubber, it acts as a shock absorber. Hope this helps.

Sure, it is made of a tough plastic and is very durable. I gave mine to a friend as a gift, and he has it in his pool sometimes, then he uses it as a centerpiece on outside table sometimes, very cool.

No sorry it is glass, mine was broken when I got it. Was not bubble wrapped or anything. So may be good insulator, but like the replys will not take any bounce or drop at all. If you get it not broken that is ha ha

I'm not sure of the type of plastic - visually reminds me of a thinner version of plexiglass but I could be wrong. We have them throughout our house and still haven't experienced any problems - even with cat and dog running through house, child toddling around, or just clumsy adults. The worst that has happened -- I stumbled over one and the two pieces separated (as they should) and then I just slide them back together - no cracks, breaks, or other damage to them. Great item for the money!

The glass is tough. I have had it on rig for about 6months And it has seen some abuse. Still in great shape.
